Question

I want to run simple HTTP server on LAN to test it, how can I bind my local ip to this server so that everyone in the same LAN can see it?

 addr = ("192.168.10.14", 8765)
 srvr = HTTPServer(addr,RequestHandler)

I get this error :

error: [Errno 10049] The requested address is not valid in its context

Answer 1

try this:

addr = ("0.0.0.0", 8765)

Here is what i did:

import BaseHTTPServer
from SimpleHTTPServer import SimpleHTTPRequestHandler

addr = ("0.0.0.0", 8765)

serv = BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer(addr, SimpleHTTPRequestHandler)

serv.serve_forever()

And got from an other machine:

192.168.1.2 - - [09/Nov/2010 22:26:09] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 -
